    Yes.

    The relatively few, high-school and college officials I know are all the same. The default response is to defend officials and downplay the importance of their mistakes. (If they can even admit a mistake at all)

    Lighthouse thinks Tim Donaghy is an anomaly and that he is lying about other NBA officials on the take and I'm sure thinks NCAA officiating in clean. (It clearly isn't, Shows, Higgins etc) Bob Voulgaris makes a living betting on NBA games and has started tracking and posting about certain officials where something is clearly going on.

    He also thinks Shows is consistent. He is consistently bad and reliable for calling two halves differently.

      One thing that would be a good idea to do is get your information right before you tell me what I think and who I think it about!!! If you remember, I just admitted a wrong and apologized for it. You have no idea what I think about any official and IF you don't want to take a break from WCN for awhile, you'll let this stuff die and now.

      If you have ever seen an evaluation of officials I put here on this site, you know I tell it like it is and report any and all missed or ignored calls I see in a game. I even invited WCN'ers to my home to watch a replay while I did an evaluation. For your information, I think John Higgins is a terrible official, and have evaluated him on games not involving UK. And yes, I think Doug Shows, Tony Greene and many other SEC officials are good officials who are honest. Are they perfect? NO! BACK OFF!
